 *When creating a topic, no geodata is copied, moved or saved in the database. The topic file only contains the '''path and filename of the referenced geodata'''. As a consequence, referenced data may not be moved or renamed without also noting the corresponding changes in TMC Studio. These catalogs need to be accessible to ALL TMC-users, since the access to the various topics can not be limited to individual users/groups. If this is not done, error messages will appear when opening TMC / the corresponding topics, since the underlying data can't be found/accessed.
-*When creating the topics, only reference files of the same format and data structure (georefrence, attributes [for vectordata]). For instance: If you wish to display a DGN- and a SHP-file in TMC you have to create two individual topics. This also need to be done when dealing with a shapefile (SHP) that contains different kinds of attributes and/or attribute formats.

-*Geodata can only be used if it has been '''correctly georeferenced'''. When working with rasterdata the corresponding information will usally be provided in additional "World"-files (Format examples: TFW for TIF or JPW for JPG). These will usually also have the same file name as the corresponding rasterfile.
